...a bit disappointing, tbh.
it's definitely because of stocking issues, right?

To be realistic this was never going to sell as much as Country Girls debut single. Honestly, Country Girls are not going to sell as well as their debut single, at least not until they get into a new rhythm. We have become a bit spoiled if we think 20,000 first day sales on a debut single isn't good. Non-HP/48 acts usually don't sell that high on debut. Not to mention that this is first day sales and they may get up to 30k by the end of the week.

That's honestly a better number than I expected.

They started to cry tears of joy during their introductions

[Sohee]

^
^The tall guy is oyakata even (which is like, uh. "stable master" dictionary says it means lol) and he if anything is quite a huge name in Japan. Both of them are though, good for them. Here's hoping they'll get more sumo related stuff.

2nd day Oricon chart:

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/2015-09-02/

steady at #3


Also very strong 2nd day sales, 8,939 copies, bringing the total over 2 days to 28,287.

[AyuHikaru]

that is really steady, if they don't sell much more I'd be happy with 28k

If I am not wrong the guy in the suit is a huge fan of Ayaya xD nice of him to appear.
